The Vortex!
Early east coast game.
The Eagles just got spanked by the Bears.

The Cards got this!

Depends who starts.

Kolb with no practice for the last 2 weeks:

Eagles 41
Cards 20

Kolb comes out, the happy feet are back by the 3rd snap, a couple turnovers, game over quick. A classic 'down 21 points with 6 minutes left in the 1st quarter' game. The 3rd touchdown coming on a DRC pick 6.

If Skelton plays:

Eagles 23
Cards 21

Cards play a conservative offense, limit their mistakes but... Vick pulls a "Vince Young in 09" against us to end the game while AJ Jefferson and Marshall get eaten alive.

Vick has been knocked down 100 times this year. Why don continue that and just win this game?

Andy Reid will be on the hot seat after this one.

Keys to the game for the Cardinals:

Make Vick pass the ball.
Take care of the ball.
Design some plays to get Fitz the ball and make some big plays.
Run the ball.

Almost all our games come down to the key plays we don't make, we have to figure out how to make them and keep the other team from doing the same, it's a simple formula and the Cardinals absolutely could do it.

They don't very often but if we focus on what we can do and stop trying to focus on what we want to do we have a chance.

Our defense is playing better. Contain Vick and play our healthy QB could be a very competitive game.

Cards 19- Eagles 17

The Cards D will play better than it has and hold the Eagles O under thirty points.

The Cards O will score an early TD and get some hopes up but they will follow that with nothing but Feely FG's.

Eagles 27
Cards 16

Because this team is incapable of taking advantage of other team's weaknesses. This falls on the coach. There is no excuse for coming out unprepared week after week. Also, we won't touch Vick because our rushers seem to actively seek out an offensive player to run into. Watch our pass rush and especially our blitzes. It looks like we rush in and run into the first player we see. Now look at the other team's pass rush on us like in the first safety last week. 1 player blew out Brown and Colledge en route to sacking Skelton.

That's a good point. A situation I've seen numerous times and specifically last week with Rashad Johnson, was Johnson lowering his shoulder into a blocking fullback as if he was the blocker. I guess the idea is to take the fullback out of the play in order to let your fellow defenders get through, but how many times have you seen defenders against us simultaneously take on blockers make tackles, block lanes or tip passes?

I think this is the breakout game for Skelton. He will hit 300 yards passing this game.

THis ones a train wreck waiting to happen. An east coast game, a confused D, and an uninspired O line spell a blowout. Hopefully the FO demands some changes sooner rather than later. Grimm for starters.

I hope we fight hard this game. I have a feeling we lose but I hope we keep it close, you know? Really hoping something clicks with Skelton too.
